        the argument isn't "government" vs "corporations"
        it's using both government and corporations to kill as many leftists as possible by any means necessary

            Well you see anon, there's this magical thing called "the friend/enemy distinction" that most conservatives have completely failed to understand.
            How it works like this; if any government law, branch, or policy hurts leftists, then it's good, and if it hurts right wingers, it's bad.
            Similarly, if anything a corporation does hurts left wingers, it's good, and if it huts right wingers, it's bad.
            By this logic, the things in the government that hut the leftists the most should be expanded as much a possible, and the things that help leftists should be over-regulated into extinction.
            Similarly, corporations should be encouraged to do anything and everything that hurts leftists, but anything that helps leftists should be boycotted, fined, nationalized, or what have you.
            This is how you play to win, which is how leftists approach everything already.
            They only talk about "values" in order to use them against you. I'm sure you've already seen the flop from "social media can ban whoever it wants" to "we need the government to regulate it now that we don't control it".

              No, it's not winning. When you take this approach, everyone loses. Ultimately you drag everyone down with you into slavery while you think you're "winning" because a conman wearing your team uniform says so.

        Yes because we are talking about games that long since stopped development maintained by a skeleton crew and most likely the original devs left the company so it would be very hard to revisit this title and give it proper support. I mean even when nightdive remaster titles not a lot of them see play and we are talking about refurbishing relatively simple games through the KEX engine.

        I mean you could make the case that this could help Ubisoft since their old titles could be relevant but they do offer DRM games through GOG nobody buys. There is really no incentive and if the game really had a passionate fanbase they could develop a spiritual succesor themselves like Fallout was to Wasteland.

    Reminder that the people against government regulations are still fully in support of IP laws. As in, they want people thrown in jail if they make unauthorized backup copies of games they purchased. They unironically consider it theft to mod and romhack a game you purchased. they want the government to throw you in prison because you rented a game, and then shared it with a friend, thus denying the corporation 2 sales.

    But government regulation is bad guys.

        Notice how these corporate shills will call piracy "theft" even if you bought the game, because you're not allowed to make unauthorized backups. Yet if a company sabotages your game so you can't play it anymore, or they rescind access to your game without a refund, suddenly their hands are tied and there's nothing they can do.

            american food is really bad but most americans will never acknowledge it. Not only is high fructose corn syrup in every packaged but kids now think that food comes from the grocery store and some refuse to eat things that dont come from a package. the entire culture of eating here has devolved to fast food/take out and drinking very large sodas.

            There are some very dubious chemicals in their food, some are harmful in relatively high quantities and some are just weird like how Hershey chocolate contains a chemical found in vomit.

      The people who start these threads have a low IQ and cannot reply with anything like what do they hope to accomplish without start throwing feces.

      What do you think it is going to happen? I mean for one this has LESS traction than the SBI stuff which is already dead, go gamers, and this intentionally done with malice knowing that even if Ubisoft does comply these fricking worms want this to happen anyways so there ill faith in this altogether.

      Now I would really like to have dedicated servers but won't Ubisoft explain that the numbers this game is pushing are so low it is unfeasible, I mean the way this works is that if this is taken seriously someone from Ubisoft will have to called to give their side of things and could just show them the data that this game dead and there is a new one with more active players and even newer that, so how do you explain a bunch of boomers that this is unethical? I mean for starters we have not decided if games should be archived like other media and there is a lot to unpack there if of through the details. So would not the first step be to make games get recognized as a medium worth preserving and then tackle games shutting down?

      But I am wasting my breath.

          The EU is such a fricking shitshow I think this has a chance to pass because it is a distraction but one thing is going after American companies while Ubisoft is EU based.

          The problem I have is that the supporters of this cause are legitimately moronic and can't talk without memes and explain their goals in specific detail and the way they are going about it is mean spirited claiming to be victims but also the aggressors which make them instantly unlikeable.

          It is like I decided to run a marathon to help burn victims but I decided to start mansturbating in public at the finish line, that really undermines the point. No effort has been made to contact the developers or anything, these people genuinlly think they can threat legal action and Ubisoft wont be given a chance to defend themselves.
          >Inb4 le ubi boogey man.
          I really have a hard time thinking on any modern Ubisoft game worth saving aside the division and I would feel like garbage if I did so by threatening the developers. I mean being a game dev is already misery, the people above treat you like a burger flipper and the fanbase act like you owe them and of course this is parroted by redditors, the biggest form of scum in the planet.

            Which is why this is happening, american consumer laws are apparently so hopeless this entire initiative couldn't have happened if it was an american company.
            Regardless if the EU updates their laws the amerifats will have to adapt to them for the EU market. They're not gonna give up on this big of a market just because od a few extra hours of work making sure your game will have an offline mode once it dies.

              That has been Nightdive gig for a while but jeesh, I got ROTT Re-release on launch not a single soul was playing online. Which is an interesting position, like what if the game is relaunched but without the multiplayer component, that is something activision did if it is unfeasible to give every game a suit to host dedicated servers.

    We need less law for this, not more. Even if the EU did something, Ubisoft will pull some dumb loophole to bypass any law, they will just design their games to be online-only in a way it cannot ever be offline, or something like that.

    The only thing we need is to stop companies from suing people on copyright claims for distributing, modifying or reverse engineering dead games. Just leave us alone, we can fix the games.

      The only thing these companies have to do is put an offline mode where people can play the game even if there's no servers up in the future. Phantasy Star Online did this but you could only play solo and it didn't matter and as a result, you can still boot it up and play it today even if you don't want to hop on a private server to play it. The Gamecube port even added 4 player split screen coop which was based as frick. When PSO allowed players to play offline back in 2000, there's no excuse for something like Diablo 4 to not allow it in 2024.

    Online only is just a form of DRM now. If the games were actually good, it wouldn't matter if people could pirate it and play it offline because if it was fun then they'd buy the game anyway so they could play it with friends. BG3 let you pirate the game and host your own servers and it still sold incredibly well, the head of Larian had a good take that even if they pirate the game now, you're still making fans that will enjoy it and buy future products. But Larian isn't publicly traded so they don't have shareholders breathing down their necks to make sure that profits go up next quarter, Larian's next game will most likely be as hyped as Cyberpunk as a result, because they value long term growth instead of short term profits.

    To me, it is an irrefutable fact that people only care about themselves and an in-group consisting of any number of other people from 0 to I've heard 100 or so, but I believe most likely less than hundred. No one cares when the scope grows too large and with some people the group they care about can be limited to just one.
    Peaceful co-existence is threatened when in-groups form and destructively compete against each other until one wins (possibly formed from two or more in-groups) over the other(s) and claims the resources. Laws are formed to allow larger groups of people to live without conflict that threatens the entire population. They are respected by the in-groups that benefit from the laws and disrespected by the ones that feel they gain to lose from following them.

    When someone believes themselves and or/their group to benefit from the benefit of another in-group like radical anti-regulation people believe to benefit from unfettered capitalism, what I see people believing they are a part of a huge and somehow still cohesive in-group (the consumers) that will always be able to compete against other, very small in-groups they keep funneling resources towards while only receiving a minor fraction of them. If this is line of thinking is taken to what I believe is the logical conclusion, at some certain threshold an in-group consisting of a relatively few individuals or a conglomeration of a few of these in-groups will eventually have enough resources to use to successfully claim all the resources over the other in-groups and you better hope you are part of the right in-group(s). While laws and regulations can be cleverly used by the in-groups competing against me, I believe this one can't be used against me and mine and most likely you and yours.

            Well it sounds like you as a company can't adapt and deserve to die. Every single company these days follows regulations and follows cultures and whatever the frick attracts more money, so if you're not willing to make money as an entity whose sole existence and purpose is to make money, you deserve to die.

                You're the company who can't adapt and overcome this minor annoyance at best. You're free to do as you wish, you can leave the business but if you wish to actually do things, you do them by the books or you don't play, its no different from being within a club, association or community my failed hustler Anon. Your active failure in not preparing for legislations within countries for which you already have to hire people to make sure you're following rules and regulations is inane at best and realistically, insane.

                Oh the consumer will do that, but you as a company will be regulated. Follow rules or get fined and your product not for sale, simple as. I am just one of many telling you the reality, which is that corporations need to follow rules like everyone else, and if they do not wish to do so, they can simply not and have their privileges revoked.

                >my own technology
                Apple doesn't own the patent for USB-C, so they made their own bullshit charger to nickel-and-dime people who were locked into upgrade contracts.
                Drink bleach.

                Which is their right to do. It's bullshit and moronic for the end user but it's their right to do. Think about what you are saying. Also nobody is locked into upgrade contract you are talking nonsense. They are selling their own charger for 20 years now and you re not obliged to own an iPhone. As long as you re not breaking laws, cheating, scamming or in some way abuse the end user, you can do whatever the frick with your own product.
